DD8 8 is starting 3rd grade in an accelerated program (so it will really be 4th grade across the board) She was mostly As and Bs last year, honor roll twice. We had a bumpy year with her being sick often then we found out it was a dairy issue. Then we had to address her processing and motor incoordination issues, getting a 504 in place for this year... so hoping this year goes smoother not that we have been dealing with so many of her problems. I also learned a lot about her learning style and needs last year.

Her new teacher uses yoga balls in the classroom for the kids to sit on (i love that as DD was contantly falling off the chairs last year) and I am hopeful that she will be in tune with DD. fingers crossed!
